I try so hard to speak
yet words i say don't mean a thing
I try to rise to my feet
but I am stuck
on my hands and knees
I try so hard to breathe
but oxygen won't flow through me.

tears still fall
fears still grow
and i am stuck fifty feet below

I try so hard to understand
but your words are so angry
i try so hard to help you
but you are killing me
I try so hard to fight
but all I want to do is die
I try and i try

but pain still kills
and darkness thrills the other side of me

I try to fight
I try to breathe
but fresh air suffcates me
I try to smile
but it's all fake
I try to live
but I fear it is too late.
